Chapter 6: Problem 53

Find the work done in pushing a car along a level road from point \(A\) to point \(B, 80\) feet from \(A,\) while exerting a constant force of 95 pounds. Round to the nearest foot-pound.

Short Answer

Expert verified
The work done in pushing the car along the road is 7600 foot-pounds.

Step by step solution

01

Identify Force and Distance

Identify the force exerted on the car and the distance. From the exercise, it is provided that a constant force of 95 pounds (F) is exerted to push a car 80 feet (d).
02

Apply the formula of work

The formula of the work done is \(Work = Force(F) \times Distance(d)\). Substitute the given values into this formula.
03

Calculate Work

Multiply the force by the distance. Doing this computation \(Work = 95 pounds \times 80 feet\) yields the work done.
04

Present the final answer

After calculation, present the value of the work done in foot-pounds.
